Developer’s latest innovative slot takes players to a beautiful fantasy land where they must seek out Coins to grow the jackpot and trigger massive prizes

Players find themselves in a mystical fantasy land where they can discover incredible treasures and five jackpots in Circle of Sylvan, the latest blockbuster slot from Fantasma Games, the developer of slots beyond gambling. Circle of Sylvan is already live with a limited number of operators and have delivered exceptional performance with initial player retention KPIs up +30% from an already successful 2024 game release schedule.

Circle of Sylvan which is scheduled for global market release on the 8th of August sees players seek out the Sylvan Coins in order to nourish the Golden Tree which in turn grows the Jackpot Prize they can play for. Each Coin boosts the pot by 0.5x.

They must also keep channelling powers to the Golden Circle to summon the Jackpot Wheel where they can spin for one of the five jackpot prizes. Any Sylvan Coin landing on the reels has the potential to bring the Jackpot Wheel to life.

But that’s not all – Free Spins with Multipliers are also in store. Whenever players miss the Free Spins trigger by just one reel, the Free Spins Multiplier progresses with every two progressions boosting the Multiplier by one level up to a max of 50x.

The magic doesn’t stop there. The Hold & Win feature locks all Cash Prize positions on the reels and then clears the column and opens up the vacated positions again for more locking Cash Prizes. All Cash Prizes are then multiplied by the Free Spins Multiplier.

Circle of Sylvan takes the 3-3-4-4-5 reel format with 720 paylines active in the base game, and the max win potential is 5,072x bets.

As with all Fantasma Games slots, Circle of Sylvan has been certified for launch in core regulated markets across Europe and North America.

Fredrik Johansson, Founder at Fantasma Games, said: “Circle of Sylvan is yet another example of our slots beyond gambling development focus. The game allows players to quickly be rewarded for their gameplay, and hence maximizes the overall entertainment value. Players find themselves immersed in a fantasy land where they must follow the narrative and progress through the gameplay to unlock the jackpots and biggest rewards.

“Our design team has done an incredible job of bringing the theme and story to life, and we have also produced a beautiful soundscape to ensure it’s the complete package.

Circle of Sylvan is already beating all pre-launch expectations and solidifies our focus to bring a premium entertainment experience to our partners and their player communities. We have seen a consistent high performance from our entire 2024 games portfolio, which is a great player testimony, and which gives us confidence in our continued portfolio development work.”
